objective and politically neutraldiscipline, scholars have recently called for reforms to engineering education that challengetechnical/social dualism by integrating the “social realm” into dominant ways of thinking,knowing, and in doing engineering [1-2]. By social realm, we mean to evoke the waysengineering shapes, and is shaped by, social, cultural, political, and ethical systems, that informwho gets to participate in engineering, how and why engineering problems are perceived andundertaken, the results of engineering work, and who benefits from the outcomes of engineeringwork [1,3]. As scholars become increasingly aware of the role engineering plays in socialsystems, there have been increasing calls for engineering education to center the

In previous courses, it was found thatstudents lacked these information literacy skills and needed far more than one library instructionsession and one assignment to master these skills. It was determined that in order to accomplishthese objectives, multiple library information literacy instruction sessions and informationliteracy-based assignments were necessary.Implementation GuidelinesTo prepare for the unit of study, the professor reached out to professors in each of the 11engineering departments and conducted at least one interview with a faculty member about theirresearch. These five-to-ten-minute conversations were recorded on zoom and posted for studentsto watch.Table 1

One ofthe essential abilities is communication, not only oral and written communication but alsousing distinct channels or tools (e-mail, text messages, or chats). One related skill tocommunication is using comprehensiveness to clarify statements and notes [9], facilitating thestudents' feedback in diverse forms. In this part, ethical and social skills acquire a relevantrole, so communication must be based on respect in a comfortable and sure environmentconsidering cultural differences and institutional policies.

If the data is incomplete or inaccurate, it can lead to flawed decision-making. (b) Cost: Implementing analytics tools and systems can be expensive, which may be a barrier for some academic departments, particularly those with limited resources. (c) Resistance to change: Some faculty and staff may be resistant to using analytics to make decisions, particularly if they are not familiar with the technology or feel that it undermines their expertise.

AI/ML can analyze large amounts of data sets in ashort time; it will support a lot of fields to solve problems in a highly efficient way. It isincreasingly important to introduce basic AI/ML concepts to students to build familiarity withthe technologies they will interact with and make decisions about. Ideally, all students graduatingfrom high school should have some understanding of AI, the ethical issues associated with AI,and the potential strengths and weaknesses of a society built on top of computer intelligence [3].Although AI is increasingly used to power instructional tools for K-12 education, AI conceptsare not
